Bag Semantics Conjunctive Query Containment. Four Small Steps Towards Undecidability.
Summary: Bag-semantics conjunctive query containment, advancing beyond set-based results in QCP_CQ. Four small steps toward undecidability show generalized bag-QCP_CQ is undecidable; for boolean CQs phi_s, phi_b and a linear F, deciding F(phi_s(D)) <= phi_b(D) for all databases D is undecidable.
